When looking online there are a number of articles discussing is Chiropractic Scientific and the science behind Chiropractic. Within upper cervical Chiropractic there are different approaches, some more scientific than others. The approaches which use objective tests, such as nerve system scans and x-rays, are the more scientific approach. These are backed up by more case studies and research to show improvements in the body beyond the relief of symptoms
There are other approaches which focus more on the alleviation of symptoms. Sometimes these clinics wont use any objective tests, such as x-rays or nerve system scans, but instead rely on the patient explaining how things feel.
While it is very important to take a proper history of symptoms and to track progress, there MUST also be a process to assess the condition of the body, as we cant always feel problems.
Think of the example of a person who goes for a medical checkup, they feel fine, but on examination of their blood and blood pressure they show signs of heart disease. In this case it is best to correct the problem before causing something more serious, like a heart attack.
The same is for Chiropractic patients, there should be tests to screen for the presence of Subluxation, with or without symptoms, at every visit, to ensure progress and prevent problems. This is the more objective scientific approach and is more effective.
At Vitality Chiropractic we use infrared thermography to scan the nervous system at every appointment, x-rays, blood pressure and HRV as part of the upper cervical care we provide to get a better diagnosis and give our patients faster, longer lasting results.
